Just recently DermaE has decided to rebrand and change up their packaging. I was graciously sent two products from their Hydration line, Hydrating Day Cream & Hydrating Night Cream, to test out, review, and comment on their new packaging.

To me the old packaging is so iconic, whenever I saw it I automatically knew what it was.

It really helps that my mom has been using DermaE for as long as i can remember.

On the other hand, the new packaging is so modern and sleek, that it really does represent the brand so much better. Being that DermaE is a “clean” brand the new frosted glass and minimalist labeling, fits in with their core beliefs.

This is a super thick Hydrating Day Cream, with a beautiful scent. I have normal to dry skin, so for the longest, I assumed the thicker, the more moisturizing, the better.

Nope.
Not with this one.

I can’t honestly say this Hydrating Day Cream fully hydrates my skin. It does however initially hydrate my skin and then dry my skin out, and as a bonus it leaves a white film on my face.

I tried using less product, but to no avail.

I’ve tried mixing it with other day creams, as well as super exfoliating before application. But I still end up with a white film on my face. God forbid I sweat, it melts off as if I had never put it on in the first place.

I eventually had to stop using it because I would just end up wiping it off my face before I left the house. It eventually made no sense to put it on.

I have only used one other night cream in the past year/year and a half. When I ran out of it, I went on a hunt to find an affordable replacement. But to my avail, it seems like night creams are super expensive.

So when I started trying this one, it was like magic.

This as well is a thick cream moisturizer, but because it supposed to sit over night it has ample time to fully sink in. Although this does sink in right away. It absolutely lasts through out the night and I see a complete difference upon waking in the hydration of my skin. My skin is visibly more radiant.

I really enjoy using this Hydrating Night Cream. My favorite thing ever is using a product and getting the results that the product promises.

At any rate I really enjoy using this night cream (I’m still using it), and I do hope to experiment with some of their other products. I have a new outlook on DermaE as a brand, not just for my Mothers generation but transcending any age gaps.
